• Danger! An acute risk of explosion exists if

there is a pungent smell of gas. Do not switch

off the appliance. Do not disconnect the charg-

ing clamps. Ventilate the room immediately and

thoroughly. Have the battery inspected by a cus-

tomer service workshop.

• Never use the cable for any purpose other than its

intended purpose.

Do not carry the appliance by its cable and never pull

on the cable to remove the plug from the socket-

outlet. Protect the cable from heat, oil and sharp

edges.

• Examine your appliance for signs of damage. Have

defective or damaged parts repaired or replaced

by a customer service workshop unless otherwise

stated in these operating instructions.

• Observe the mains voltage (230V - 50Hz).

• Keep the terminals clean and protect them from cor-

rosion.

• This charger is not suitable for maintenance-free

batteries.

• Always disconnect the appliance from the power

supply before carrying out any cleaning or mainte-

nance work.

• Wear acid-proof safety gloves and goggles

whenever you connect up and charge the bat-

tery and whenever you ﬁ ll in acid or top up with

distilled water.

• Have repairs carried out only by a qualiﬁ ed electri-

cian.

Disposal

• Batteries: Dispose of unwanted batteries only via

automotive workshops, special battery collection

stations or special waste collection centres. Ask

your local authorities for details.

3. CHARGING THE BATTERY

Motor vehicle manufacturers recommend discon-

necting the battery from the vehicle's electric sys-

tem prior to charging.

We wish to point out that even standard vehicle

models are equipped with numerous electric mod-

ules (e.g. ABS, ASC, fuel injection pump, on-board

computer and car phone). Voltage peaks may

cause damage to electronic components. It is ad-

visable therefore to disconnect the battery from the

vehicle's electric system during charging.

Please note the instructions in the manuals sup-

plied with your car, radio, car phone, etc.

To charge the battery, proceed as follows:

Figure 1:

Undo or remove the battery plugs.

Figure 2:

Check the level of acid in your battery. Top

up with distilled water if necessary.

Caution! Battery acid is corrosive. Wash off acid

splashes immediately and thoroughly with plenty of

water and consult a doctor if necessary.

Figure 3:

First connect the red charging lead to the

positive pole of the battery.

Figure 4:

Then connect the black charging lead to

the negative pole of the battery.

Figure 5:

Once the battery is connected to the charg-

er you can connect the charger to a 230V

(50Hz) socket-outlet. It is prohibited to con-

nect the charger to a socket-outlet with any

other supply voltage.

Danger! Hazardous electrolytic gas may arise during

charging. It is imperative, therefore, to avoid sparking

and open ﬂ ames during charging. Risk of explosion!

Figure 6: Calculating the charging time:

The charging time depends on the battery's charged

condition. For an empty battery it is possible to calcu-

late the approximate charging time with the following

equation:

capacity in Ah

Charging time/h = ———————————————

amps (charging current arithm.)

A normally discharged battery is characterized by a

high initial charging current that is

approximately equal to the rated current and which

decreases as the charging progresses. An old battery

which does not show any decrease of charging cur-

rent has a defect, e.g. short-circuiting of battery cells

or ageing.

Figure 7: The only way to determine the exact condi-

tion of the battery (level of charge) is to measure the

acid density with an acidimeter.

Please note: Gases are released during the charging

operation (bubbling on the surface of the battery liq-

uid).

Make sure the room is well ventilated.

1.28 battery charged

1.21 battery half charged

1.16 battery empty

Pull the power plug out of the socket-outlet.

First disconnect the black charging lead from

the negative pole of the battery.

Then disconnect the red charging lead from

the positive pole of the battery.

Screw or press the battery plugs back in place.

5. SERVICING AND CLEANING

THE BATTERY AND CHARGER

• Make sure that your battery is always ﬁ tted securely

in.

• Check that the battery is properly connected to the

vehicle's electric system.

• Keep the battery clean and dry. Apply a little acid-

free and acid-resistant grease (Vaseline) to the ter-

minals.

• The level of acid in non-maintenance-free batteries

should be checked about every 4 weeks. Top up

with distilled water as necessary.

• Keep the charger in a dry room. Remove any signs

of corrosion from the charging terminals.
